    Does This Look Ready?

    First of all, she looks great! Now, I may be the only one to say this, and I know it's just one picture to look at, and the pistils are turning, etc, but to me she just has the look that she could use a tad bit more time to "fill in" and have that "ready look". Don't get me wrong, she's of...

    first grow ever

    I'm no expert, but think there are far too many variables for someone who is to give clear direction... What size containers are they in now? What kind of set up will you use? etc etc... I do know this though, which is long as you use the 4' fluorescent keep the light right on top of the plants...

    when will they flower

    It's been my experience that pants react to the relative change is the photo period, so your plants reaction to the outdoor cycle would depend on it's current indoor cycle, with all due respect to Ludacris. For instance, if she were on a 18/6 or greater indoor cycle, then the outdoor cycle would...

    are these slugs going to ruin my crop?

    I haven't had slug problems myself, but I have heard that a ring of copper around your plants will keep em out. I know they sell copper tape at home centers as snail guard as well. I saw some pictures where the grower used a couple of rings of copper wire, about an inch apart, and claimed that...

    The sun and how it cycles... A little info...

    I am posting this after reading in so many threads something that goes like this... "Well, where I live we don't get 12 - 12 til late September", and of course it relates to the flowering cycle of the plants. Now, most of us know and understand that a plant determines when to flower based upon...

    do you cut fan leaves

    Molasses is good during the whole flowering phase, and a rate of about 1 tbl per gallon, every few days. The last 10 days to 2 weeks are for clear water flushing prior to harvest... At least to me that is...

    what do you say/do when.....

    Kaleo, just reading this thread it's cool to see the change in tenor in your comments... You're on the way bro. It's amazing what a little venting and support from the community can do. Sadly, it sucks big time while you're going through it, and like others have said we've all been there in one...

    do you cut fan leaves

    The way I understand it is the fan leaves play an important role in the plants processes. Their relatively large surface area allows them to photosynthesize more energy, relative t their growth needs, thereby providing energy to the plant. They also provide a store of nutrients which will be...

    Pot Size Thoughts

    Interesting hypothesis, and while I no expert by any means this did get me to thinking. Oh, and maybe it's cause I'm new here, or that I'm old... lol, but I don't know what your modified "SOG/SCROG" style grow is, but do understand the sea of green aspect. With that I imagine there being...

    Helicopters finding your outdoor grow

    This is what I have heard... They do in fact use helo's to look for gorilla grow operations in most states, but the truth is that they have to allocate their resources carefully due to budget constraints. This is even true when the economy is not a negative factor. What they spend their...

    Topping During Pre-Flower?? Plants too tall, any advice? (pictures included)

    Bro, no expert here at all but a seasoned grower. You actually have a perfect situation to train your plants to the sides... When I look at your pics I visualize some support lines running along the bottom of the joists and perpendicular to them, maybe every 12" or so. This can be anything...
